Live now, doing more dev experiments on the Sharp X68000. Come join us for drinks, like refreshments and and level of swearing proportional to the code refusing to work on real hardware!

Revision is a non-profit event; however, that does not make us non-cost. Do you want to help us in realising one of the biggest participatory programming art events? Then we'd be excited to have you!

MODtober 2025

Back at the start of October while scrolling through BlueSky, I came across a post from “Vanessa Vananass” with the tag #MODtober. It was the start of a megathread celebrating tracker m…

Here we are, the last post of #MODtober. It's been fun digging through my back catalogue each day and picking something to upload. Today is Starquake which was written for the Amiga port by Galahad. This tune just has that ending feel to it.

Live now with our regularly scheduled retro shenanigans. Tonight I'm taking apart my 1200, putting two 600's back together and building some SFX code. twitch.tv/djh0ffman

Coding and possibly fitting a new mech keyboard to my 1200

More #MODtober and today we have one of the very few times I've used a PC/DOS tracker format. You may be more familiar with the "demo" version of this tune, so intead I've uploaded the clean original track played in MilkyTracker. I hated having 18 channels 🥲

#MODtober we are going all the way back to May 1991 today with Tokyo Funk. My first ever tune released on a music disk, age 14. Probably ripped all the samples :)

#MODtober Time to dive into the single most popular soundchip of all time. The SID!. I've not made many tunes for the C64, but it was a lot of fun converting a Wavesabre tune (PC 32kb exe) down to 3 channels.

We're getting close to the end of #MODtober 🙁 so before we run out of time, we'd better get this up into the Mix. A demo soundtrack so large it wouldn't fit in memory all at once.

#MODtober
Todays outing is a little edit. Originally made for the Technova demo I made for Nova a few years back, this version applys some little changes to help make it a little easier to spin up in a PT-1210 DJ Set.

#MODtober made for the recent text art pack / music disk Textual Healing Vol. 2. This is a cheeky little chip-tune cover of "Left Bank Two" by "The Noveltones". Some of you may also recognise it from Tony Hart.
